About this study
In plain language
This study tests IDE849 in people with tumors that make a protein called DLL3, including small cell lung cancer. It checks how safe the drug is, how well it works, how the body handles it, and whether the immune system reacts to it.
This is Phase 1/2, multicenter, clinical study to evaluate the safety, efficacy, PK, and immunogenicity of IDE849 in subjects with DLL3-expressing tumors including SCLC.
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
Eligibility
Who can join
- Understand the study, agree to take part, and sign a consent form.
- Have an eligible cancer confirmed by testing: widespread small cell lung cancer, neuroendocrine cancer (cancer in hormone-making cells), or another solid tumor with enough DLL3.
- Scans must show that the cancer grew or came back after standard treatment. For small cell lung cancer, this usually includes platinum chemotherapy and immune therapy; some exceptions apply.
- Provide blood and tumor samples for testing, and have at least one tumor that can be measured on a scan.
- Be fully active or able to do light work, even if heavy activity is limited.
- Be expected to live more than 3 months.
- Have blood cell levels and organ function that meet study rules within 7 days before treatment. No blood products or cell growth medicines are allowed in the 14 days before treatment.
- If able to become pregnant, use highly effective birth control from consent through 8 months after the last IDE849 dose. Men with partners who could become pregnant must use effective birth control through 5 months after the last dose.
Who can't join
- Have limited-stage small cell lung cancer or a mix of small cell and non-small cell lung cancer. Small cell cancer mixed with large cell neuroendocrine cancer is allowed. Cancer spread to the brain or spinal cord that is active or has not been treated locally is not allowed.
- Have had another cancer within 2 years, unless it meets an allowed exception or is approved by the study's medical reviewer.
- Have uncontrolled cancer pain, severe heart or brain blood vessel disease, significant bleeding within 3 months, or certain past or current lung inflammation or serious lung diseases.
- Have an immune system weakness with HIV confirmed by study tests, known or suspected viral hepatitis (a liver infection), or active tuberculosis within the past year.
- For durvalumab: be unable to receive immune therapy or have certain past serious immune side effects. For IDE161: have gut surgery or illness that affects drug absorption. For carboplatin: be unable to receive or tolerate platinum chemotherapy.
- Have received cancer treatment, experimental drugs, radiation, major surgery, or had serious injury too recently under study rules. Prior DLL3-targeted treatment carrying a Topo1-blocking drug is not allowed, except with the IDE161 combination.
- Take medicines banned by the study, including certain drugs that affect other medicines or heart rhythm. The IDE161 combination also bans certain acid-reducing medicines and antacids.
- Be pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning pregnancy during the study or within 8 months after the last study drug dose.

Official eligibility criteria
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Are willing to participate in this clinical study, understand the study procedures, and are able to sign the written ICF. 2. Subjects with histologically or cytologically confirmed ES- SCLC, neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC), DLL3+ solid tumors, are eligible per protocol. Subjects must have radiologically progressed or recurred after previous standard treatment. For SCLC, this includes platinum-based therapy and programmed death-1/programmed death-ligand 1 inhibitors (except for subjects who refuse, or are judged by the Investigator to be unsuitable, or were intolerant to immunotherapy and chemotherapy may enroll to receive monotherapy or IDE161 combination. 3. Subjects with NEC, this includes * High-grade gastroenteropancreatic NEC * NEC of the prostate * Small cell NEC of any other organ * Merkel cell carcinoma * Transformed non-small cell adenocarcinoma of the lung (including but not limited to epidermal growth factor receptor or Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog mutated adenocarcinoma of the lung post progression on targeted therapies * Any other NEC that does not meet any of the indications noted above. 4. Subjects with other solid tumors demonstrated to express moderate/high expression of DLL3 including metastatic melanoma, Grade 3 gastrointestinal and pancreatic NETs, and pulmonary carcinoids. • metastatic melanoma 5. Subjects will be required to provide blood/tumor tissue samples for biomarker testing. 6. Have at least 1 measurable lesion according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. 7. Have Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS) score of 0 or 1. 8. Have life expectancy \> 3 months. 9. Have adequate bone marrow and organ function within 7 days of the first dose (no use of any blood components and/or cell growth factors within 14 days prior to the start of the study treatment). 10. Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must agree to take highly effective contraceptive measures from signing of consent through 8 months after the last dose of IDE849; men with partners of child-bearing potential must use effective contraception through 5 months after the last dose. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Have mixed SCLC and NSCLC histology are not allowed (SCLC with components of large cell NEC are eligible). Participants with limited stage SCLC are ineligible. 2. Subjects with locally untreated (radiotherapy or surgery) or active central nervous system (CNS) tumor metastasis. 3. Have had other malignancies within 2 years prior to the first dose, except adequately treated carcinoma in situ (cervical, breast, or other), basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, localized prostate cancer after curative therapy with no recurrence, or papillary thyroid cancer after curative resection; other prior or concurrent malignancies may be eligible with Medical Monitor review and approval. 4.
